Description
This study uses information from published Australian Taxation Office (ATO) data and represents the extent and characteristics of tax-deductible donations made and claimed by Australian taxpayers to Deductible Gift Recipients (DGRs) at Item D9 Gifts or Donations in their individual income tax returns for the 2019-20 income year. The total amount donated and claimed as tax deductible donations in 2019-20 was $3.85 billion. This constitutes a decrease of 2.11 per cent or $83 million from the previous income year. The average tax-deductible donation made to DGRs and claimed by Australian taxpayers in 2019-20 was $886.75 (compared to $933.20 in the previous income year).
